Hi guys, complete n00b here. Been reading a lot of this thread. But I have a question that I haven't found an answer to. I built a M05 kit and like I do with everything, after some research, I made it harder. I got the VII chassis and suspension set, and assorted bits and pieces to put it together. My question:
Tamiya says to set the steering arm at 79 mm between ball connectors with the servo at 90 degrees. I'm a good 3 or 4 mm longer than that to get the wheels inline. Is that normal? Both M05 and VII instructions have the same measurement. But (I believe) the VII steering rod is longer than stock. I've got just a cheapo servo in it now and wondered if servo's are just that different or if it's something else I might have screwed up. The rod is not holding on by much as is.
Sorry if I missed a post on this, but this is a truly epic thread.
